During the live stream of the telethon, the More Life rapper made a speech regarding the devastation of the hurricane, urging fans and viewers to pay attention to what's going on and donate.

“These days it seems as one issue is ending, another is beginning” he said in the video below. "I know it can be extremely overwhelming. But your attention and your assistance is of extreme importance. On some days it will be about speaking up, on other days, it'll be about stepping up. In today's case, we're asking you to give. Give whatever you can."
